    our local council have failed to listen to my concerns about knotweed growing on their land near my house. Is there somewhere to report them to and get it sorted?

    By the time it's this big, it's unmistakable. Are there no ID guides which show seedlings, which is what I searched for?!

    People ignore this until they have landscaping work done, then they realise that a lot of people won't touch it.

    Are the two plants you showed in the. comparison section just as problematic as normal Japanese knotweed? in terms of eradication and damage?

    why kill them when you can eat them

    • @JKLtdTV

      Eating knotweed will not eradicate it or provide sufficient control of the plant within the UK. It has no natural predators, which means once it's started to grow, it can (and will) cover large areas of land very quickly. Also, you can only eat Japanese knotweed at the start of the growing season, which is only for about 2 weeks. Lastly, if you're picking Japanese knotweed from the wild to eat, you need to be sure that it hasn't been treated with any herbicides.
      Eating knotweed is not the solution to preventing or controlling knotweed growth, or indeed, killing it completely.

      @@shepherdofmemories The natural predator that you're talking of, the itadori psyllid, has only been released in a controlled, trial environment. It has yet to be released nationwide, pending research and the results of the trial.

      Great point. At last someone that thinks outside the box. The British are so easily brainwashed by bad media. Here is a University Study proving Japanese Knotweed is not such a problem! I want to claim against Monsanto and other Pesticide Companies (BANKS) for promoting this muck, which destroys our bees, worms, health and planet. The Oxford Bio Lab has told me I cannot use my Japanese Knotweed anymore, because of my new neighbour using dangerous chemicals to get rid of his Knotweed! I was in amazing health when I could forage and use this plant, now I am ill again and back on the strong inhalers: butterflylullaby.blogspot.com/2019/05/japanese-knotweed-mortgage-uk.html BUT I REFUSE TO GIVE UP. I WILL FORAGE AGAIN IN MY GARDEN ONE DAY!

    Study has found you can’t actually eradicate this plant.

    • @JKLtdTV
      @JKLtdTV  6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      The study found that you can't eradicate the plant with herbicide treatment. However, the study didn't assess excavation of the affected area, which does provide eradication.

      @lol Just dig it out, the more you dig the better, dispose of the weed by burning it all, dispose of the soil just incase(even though this may not do anything)
      Get fresh new soil.

    • @Largetalons
      @Largetalons 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      More of an excavation than a dig... and if you miss any of it, it's coming back.
